Many freelance designers hit an income ceiling around $50K per year, despite putting in more hours and taking on more projects. It's not about working harder—it’s about working smarter.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • The core mindset barriers keeping designers stuck at $50K and how to shift past them.
  • How to stop pricing based on fear and start charging your true value.
  • Why being a generalist keeps your income capped (and how niching down can solve this).
  • The crucial difference between hourly billing and value-based pricing.
  • How strategic positioning, dynamic pricing, and retainers can help you scale beyond your current plateau.

Ready to finally break through the $50K barrier and reach six figures and beyond? Tune in and let's level up your design business together!
